...and a reminder came in the mail today. Unlike previous years, where you had to wait outside the gate to get your registration sticker - they mailed them this year, and we breeze right on in! Goodie bags picked up at our leisure.

I found a local guy who knew how to install PortaWhites - I replaced two that had come off the rear tires:

I gave myself a Father's Day gift, and drove Faulkner on the West Chester Pike. Punched it a couple times - I had forgotten how much fun it is to drive a tail-finned road locomotive! Gassed up for Carlisle:

OK, Matthew, our punch list: replace battery preemptively - 7 years old now, replace rear window cat whiskers (particularly a problem on the passenger side), MP3 tunes, replace deck chrome strip, detail. Carlisle here we come!

So how is the convoy looking so far?

Faulkner
Earl Hess with his blacky 8)
Matthew in Earl Hess's convertible :mrgreen:
Ken Morton with the 4th hardtop?

I enjoyed the drive so much last year and going to enjoy it even more this year!

John Q, I'll bite when you reach for the keys :mrgreen:

Hello All, I will be there all weekend. Am I reading correctly that Matthew will be there? Can't wait to see you all there. I'll be parking my Challenger there and hanging out with the Fins. Matthew, are you ready for a 392 ride? See you all soon.
Take Care,
Frank
